There's a look at music legends Abba, Trump vs Harris: The Battle for America, Irvine Welsh's Crime returns for a second run, while date show fans should lap up new Netflix series Love is Blind UK . . .
Pick of the Day
Abba: Against the Odds, 9.35pm, RTÉ One
Can we ever get too much of Abba? If you're suffering from Olympics overkill - highly unlikely given Ireland's record medal haul so far and Kellie Harrington's win last night - it may also be a welcome alternative.
The Swedish superstars may have called it a day four decades ago, but their musical standing remains as high as ever. And, as the song almost says, Mamma Mia, here they go again . . .
This is a look at the Swedish band's evolution and legacy, revealing the inside story of Abba''s struggle through critical backlash, relationship break up and social change to become the biggest pop group of the 1970s.

Trump vs Harris: The Battle for America, 9.00pm, Channel 4
American political discourse is barely above the level of primary schoolyard yelling these days, but many people still find it entertaining.
Here, Matt Frei examines the candidates and breaks down the US election.
With only four months to polling day and sitting President Joe Biden (above) withdrawing so suddenly, how will Donald Trump and the Republicans pivot their campaign to face the challenge of a much younger and dynamic Democratic nominee?
And does Kamala Harris have what it takes to turn the tide for the Democrats and make it all the way to the White House?
Irvine Welsh's Crime, 9.00pm, UTV
Return of the gripping drama, starring the ever reliable Dougray Scott.
As season two begins, his character DI Ray Lennox is determined to prove he can put the Confectioner case behind him and be a normal cop. Fat chance, but you gotta love a trier.
When an ex-colleague is assaulted, Lennox suspects the incident is linked to a gruesome hotel attack on a high-ranking Establishment figure.
But when he's warned off the case by a senior Whitehall Official, he worries a cover-up is at play.
Camán na mBan, 9.30pm, TG4
Here's a documentary exploring the history, evolution and future of the 120-year-old sport of camogie as it faces fundamental change - integration with the GAA by 2027.
The film features contributions from All-Star Camogie players past and present, two former presidents of the Camogie Association and Gaelic Games' academics.
It also examines the challenges the association and the sport have overcome in its 120-year history and how the early founders carved out a space for women within the sporting and cultural revolution at the turn of the 20th century.
Jonathan Creek, 10.00pm, BBC Four
First episode of the long-running mystery series, starring Alan Davies (below, at the BBC launch of the show in 1997), Caroline Quentin, Anthony Head, Sheila Gish and Colin Baker.
Davis plays the eponymous Creek, who works as a creative consultant to a stage magician while also solving seemingly supernatural mysteries through his talent for logical deduction and his understanding of illusions.
In this opening episode, investigative reporter Maddy Magellan enlists the help of Jonathan Creek, who works as a creative consultant to a stage magician, in a bid to discover who is responsible for a painter's death.

Love is Blind UK, Netflix
UK singles who want to be loved for who they are have signed up for a less-conventional approach to modern dating, and will choose someone to marry without ever meeting them.
Over several weeks, the newly engaged couples will move in together, plan their wedding and find out if their physical connection matches their strong emotional bond developed in the Pods.
When their wedding day arrives, will real-world realities and external factors push them apart, or will they marry the person they fell blindly in love with?
Hosted by Emma and Matt Willis, this series will uncover whether looks, race or age do matter, or if love really is blind.
